Family Centered Support Programs

By providing intentional advocacy and family-centered programming, Inclusion Foothills bridges service gaps to prevent the isolation, poverty, and unemployment that frequently impact the disability community. Their mission fosters the social connections and life skills necessary to transform these systemic disadvantages into lifelong relationships and opportunity.

Together, We're Making a Difference

The dream of ordinary, meaningful lives for all began with six families in 1998. More than two decades later, the need for supporting individuals and families in leading an inclusive life has never been greater. While we have come a long way, we remain focused on expanding to the many more we can assist.

  • "I must be honest as I was very apprehensive, before our meeting, as I did not know what information was needed and what I really need to assist me on my journey, with our 9 year old ASD/ADHD son. ... I learnt some new avenues that could be approached to assist our son. I left our meeting feeling empowered and relieved that I made this meeting."
